iPad Training for Teachers
This year our teachers will be learning new ways to use iPads to engage and motivate children in their Literacy Learning. The first session is on 28th September.
Farmers’ Market
There were lots of exciting stalls, including hens, dog biscuits made by the children, Lucky Dip, Food Tasting by Gwen the School Cook, Nail in a Bale, BBQ and produce from our garden. We raised over £700 which will be spent on books and I-PADS.
Cycle to School Day
We had a fabulous day and over 100 children cycled to school. The Cycling Hub fixed several bikes and set up cycling tracks. Primary 4-7 had a Bikeability Taster Session and cycling on the Common. All classes made smoothies on the Smoothie Bike!

We wish her well in this next stage in her career.
Retiral
Miss Cameron informed the children last week that she am retiring from her post as Head Teacher at Coupar Angus Primary School from 16 August 2015.
She said “I have really enjoyed my time at Coupar Angus and have seen many changes. It has been a privilege to work with such wonderful children and staff in such a supportive, inclusive local community. My post has been advertised and the Local Authority is confident they will appoint a new Head Teacher very soon.”
